Poll question: Let's make sense of the DNC TV Coverage ratings!
We are being presented with the idea that people pick one channel and stick with it for the coverage. In the age of the remote control and commercials, I suspect the ratings system may be ambiguous. Let's find out!

Are you watching only one or do you switch channels to see who is on and what they are talking about?

PS. I have not heard any numbers for how many viewers CSPAN is getting.

6. someone had a great post with viewership over 20million
by the end of tonight it'll break 25+, we need to have that info and send it out to all these lying pundits talking about the "network" coverage down. Watch when the GOP runs their convention they'll say ratings were UP, see more people wanted to watch the GOP convention, it's bullshit spinning

I watched CSpan because I can make up my own mind and don't need to be told how Sharpton's speech was etc.

If I didn't think for myself I would be a Republican ;)
